Posted January 24, 201411 yr Hi all, Last bike was written off so now decided to go for a DT, im in south east london, just wanted to know if you can get a decent one for about £900 im on quite a tight budget unfortunately , never rode a DT But have lots of previous 2 stroke riding & have wanted one for ages, all info & replies are greatly appreciated thank you. Harry
January 25, 201411 yr Hi and welcome to the forum. You'll be very lucky to find a decent one for that money. The value of them is increasing all the time. For a decent one your looking at £1300+
January 25, 201411 yr Grouch is spot on mate I paid £1500 for my 06 125 RE it's good looking with that used look it had a slight carb problem with the float needle to begin with which my local bike shop sorted.ive done a few mods to it. You will probably get a reasonable 2000-2003 DTR for that money depends on what model you think hits the button for ya. I live in East london and travelled to a bike shop in Croydon/Surrey way to get the bike good luck on your hunt for that DT Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
January 25, 201411 yr Moderator Just be careful that what may seem to be a bargain might have expensive hidden issues.
January 25, 201411 yr Moderator Ignore them. For 900quid dont look at 06 stuff, their slower anyway. Step back further, go for a tidy late 90's bike (quicker). There are thousands out there so go see, then go see another. Till you get a good one. They are abused from mile 1 so age is irrelevant Just condition.
